The John O'Ben and Megan podcast, thanks to Hello Fresh. Your home advantage for delicious midweek dinners, everyone will love. Hey, welcome to the podcast on a Monday where we kick things off, Megan. You talked about how you're organised, very organized with what you want to be called as a grandma. Yeah, it's a long way away, but I'm thinking glamour. Glamas, I mean, that you do suit a glamour. If anyone's going to be glamour, sounds like one of the Kardashians would surely be a glamour. Have you heard anyone else using it before, surely someone else would must have used that, right?

to hurt it somewhere but chris jenna is lovey she's loving lovey oh the unusional stepdad he's grumpur because he's quite grumpy he embraces it the kids call him grumpur is he he'd be grumpy knows it he's not fine is he yeah and he's like a grumpur so yeah he's embraced it so yeah so that's you get to nominate it right yeah well he's okay with it yeah he's okay with it so it's like grumpur it's like a grandpa it's like a grandpa you know because we got four sets for you know like obviously parents and split relationships and stuff like that so yeah it's very confusing sometimes with the kids you know when they were little now obviously they've got the head or the names to remember yeah yeah yeah the four sets of stuff so there's a grandma jenny and a grandma you

know grandma grandma you have to say grandma twice grandma grandma grandma grandma well you know like because they'll go which their grandma there which grandma was that grandma Jenny or grandma grandma grandma yeah I had two nannas and nana and granddad both it's like you should have to nominate and separate like only one of them can be an Anna the other one's got to choose something else yeah but then people want to be like I get it mom I wanted to be a grandma Amanda's mom want to be a grandma so we're like I swear you can be grandma I'm not stopping you both and be good and they'd already been called you know grandma and another you know another child as well so it's going to know when Joyce does water get her grandma to someone else she's not going

like a nan it to you grandma to you. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then you get the cousins going, is it grandma or is it, Nana or what is it? And then if they all come together for one function, yeah, she's running multiple aliases.

It's kind of your last your last chance in life to have a bit of a rebrand, isn't it? A rebrag, you know, we can get to that. You're right, but someone has texts through just after the show, Megan, said, I've organised furniture from my daughter when she moves into her own house,

which is currently seven years old. Oh my God. And they're just like, where are you putting the furniture? Until then. Just get out now. I don't know if it's one of those situations. You can fend for yourself. You're old enough to get a job.

Yeah, so they're very organized. Yeah, that is... Are you saving furniture? Are you thinking about that when kids move out of? I feel like now... Maybe back in the day you might have or something that feels like a hand-me-down that's special. But now it's like, well, you've got so many stores.

It's so cheap. And where are you going to put it? Yeah. It's like, real cheap. So much landfill you can buy out there nowadays. It's the sad thing and the good thing. You're right. Back in the old days, people's antique furniture handed down through the generation.

And it would last forever. Now it's like. He's coming, mate. We can get himself, you know. Get your house kidded out for $12. Yeah, it would be great. Hey, well, you enjoy glamour, Megan, when it comes. Yeah.

And you can enjoy glamour on the podcast right now. John O'Benn and Megan. The podcast. The hits. And you mentioned something in passing that really flawed us. Something you've already organized, locked in 30 years in advance. I have thought about what I want to be called as a grandma

As a grandma Because my mum It always baffled me that she was really sold on granny Because I was like Granny's like really like old something Yeah I mean you get to a point in life Where you want Some people take that rebrand very seriously

Don't they some of the grandparents You're right Others don't care others really do Yeah And I'm like well you can kind of choose What you want to be called So most times Unless the kid's like my niece

And she says Dumas And she says Dumas and said a grandma That's stuck And Jenny can't shake dumbar Dumbar is quite good But I wanted to Rather than like grandma I was like maybe

I'm gonna go for glamour Glamma Of course you are Of course yeah Glamma She sits here in her fur jacket She's gonna be Yeah true

Glamas like I'll be with you soon darling I've just got to go to my Botox and Pilates I'm not a proper grandma. I'm a cool grandpa. Yeah, I'm a cool, grandma. So you've locked that. Has Andrew locked in his grandpah name? No, not at all.

I don't think he's even thought about it. No, I've never thought of that. No, I look like one and I haven't even thought about it. So this is what we want to chuck open. Something that you've organised years in advance. We've got a friend or three of us. She's organized a funeral with a run sheet and everything. Does she ever have that a constant update?

You would imagine she would probably. of songs that she want to play and things that you know she's done some eulogy notes of people i think yeah she's written notes of people it's like very much it's very depressing and also people like read out a script that someone else is prepared like look yeah here's what i want you to say about me i tell you what i would like and like you know i don't want to get things too morbid on a monday morning but you know the coffin i want to make it a fun thing i would love a coffin covered in puns related you like i was dying to get in here and things like that you know like you can get in here over my dead body That's sort of the

I'm coughing up cash at this funeral You know with coffin like coffin That's what I would like You're going to be one of those people That like sends out a text message from the grave To everyone at the funeral Yeah he will It's gag up a few things guys

Help let me out Bit of an audio recording A little Bluetooth speaker inside It'll be an open casket And then you look in and he's like wearing some sort of costume Yeah Just put him down

Put him down That's what I would like That's what I would like The only thing I've thought about, you know. John O' Ben and Megan. The podcast. The Hits. Old chilly one.

Jesus has been cold the last couple of days. The Uber driver was right when we came back from Wellington. He was like, telling me the temps for the next week. And he was like, he was right. It's cold. It's a cold. Did he was right? Did he?

Oh, yeah. I kind of, I got a two or three days in. I'm not going to remember any of these. He was like, a Tuesday, five. I was like, okay, yep. You know when you've lost Ben and he's just like scrolling through Instagram? Oh yeah, yeah, no worries. What have you organised years in advance?

And you could be, as we said, organizing a trip to Oprah because every call that makes it on air this morning is going to see Oprah Winfrey live and... Do you say live in concert? Oh, we're live. She's live. She's going to be here. She's live in chat.

Conversation. Here we go. Yeah, Dainty and the Hits. Welcome Oprah in conversation, presented by Lily. Spark Arena, 14th of December. Tickets on sale right now from Ticketmaster. And she's been here before. A couple of times, she's done another conversation.

before. Also filmed a movie in the Deep South, A Rinkle in Time. This is her glowing recommendation from Oprah about New Zealand. Traveled to New Zealand, it should be on your bucket list. Put it on your bucket list. This photo is extraordinary. And look

at that water behind me. It is like crystal blue. I mean, no kind of Instagram fixing up. You don't even need a filter. No filter or nothing. It just is like It needs to be an asterisk though, because like it depends on what part of New Zealand you go to.

Yeah, she's not looking at some of the beaches in Auckland. Yeah, you can't swim in those because of poos. They look nice, they look pretty. They look pretty, just don't know swimming Oprah in those. But down south where she was, yeah, beautiful. Beautiful. Take a walk up, Hobson, Streeter. Yeah, there's bits that we hide.

We can hide behind curtains. It's like every place in the world. There is good things of bad things. Which makes an entire place, doesn't it? Yeah, but it's great to hear a loving in New Zealand. That's what we want. Yeah, and we want to send you to Oprah though right now. It's great when the celebrities come.

We do just send them to the Big Bangers, don't we? And that's all we should do. Part of we sent from Prince Harry to Stewart Island for some reason. He hasn't been back since. No, he quit the rural family not long after that, I think. Rachel, what have you organised far in advance? Hi, it's kind of along the lines of the funeral, unfortunately, but I think it's quite exciting.

I did steal the idea of someone else, but what they're going to do is get cremated and then put themselves in a firework and have a fireworks display. Oh, that's quite cool. That's cool. Yeah. Then you get burned up and scattered just by nature. Exactly

What if it's not a very spectacular As I have a pair of Do you know how hard I'm working right now To find Baby you're a firework Listen we're playing everyone And be like Rachel What a champion

We can put you in a sparkler or something And everyone could spray your spray your research Rachel We're going to hook you out with double pass To see Oprah thanks to sharing that with us this morning Enjoy Good on you appreciate it I imagine a lot of weddings

are organised years and advance sometimes when people don't even have a significant other I know, they've got everything planned out, you're right seating plan, who's coming, who's not the only thing missing is the person you're marrying baby names for some people as well too? Oh yeah, I picked out my son's baby name years

in advance, yeah Alcindra, how are you in Castle Point this morning? Yeah, very good, thank you, how are you? Good, cold is it? Yes, Shirley. All right, Lucinda, what have you organised years in advance? Well, it's not me and it's again along the funeral lines

that my parents have both got their coffins are good to go mum's like standing up in the garage for the trellis and wine dads came there was a voicemail on the arts machine saying you're very from the men's shed here girl can you come and collect your tiny home

you're tiny home yeah and then he goes hey can you come and give me a hand to get this thing off the back of my track place I've got it in town I was like what the hell is it He goes, oh, it's just a coffin. So we had to go and drag his coffin off the back of the truck. Oh, my goodness.

They're both so sorted. It's good to go. They're going to die now. They've just got to die now. And are they just sitting in the garage? Yeah, sitting in the garage. I don't know if I'd like to see that every day. It's a nice reminder, though, isn't it?

If you're heading. Yeah, well, hey, thank you for showing that with us, as weird as it is for a lot of us. So you're going to get yourself a double past Oprah and joy. John O'Benn and Megan The podcast, The Hits. Very excited that we actually had a win over Genzi, producer Grace, on the show on Friday after the program.

Grace and producer Troy have been fastidiously learning all 47 U.S. presidents in a song in chronological order. Who knows why? Yeah, why you might ask, we're not sure, but she's sort of hard. It's taking a lot of their time, but that's become their full-time job. The radio is kind of the side hustle job at the moment. Here's a little day. They're only sort of, you know, partially through learning them all.

Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe, John Quincy Adams. So then after the show Friday, we had a little plan, didn't we, a mischievous plan, where we had a little air bud, air pod in Megan's ear. You were awake, sick one of the days last week, so we made it up that you were like at home learning this while you were sick. I spent the whole time learning it, yeah.

Learning the president's names. My headphones could cleverly cover the air pod. And Larissa from the office was reciting the presidents in your ear And here's how it played out Grace, producer Grace Genzi, producer Grace And producer Troy

Have both been learning something very And we're not going to test you We're not testing Very nerdy It's pretty nerdy What we are doing We're trying to learn all the presidents The US presidents

In chronological order And we are up to 27 How many are there? 47 47 so we're like halfway Over halfway guys Do you know We're going to tell you some new

and you're not going to be happy. No. Did Megan learn it? I will actually cry. Megan yesterday. What did you, what did you try and do yesterday? That's not funny.

A lot of time on my hands. I told you that I was going to do it. I literally, no, I will cry. No, this isn't funny, guys. I told Troy yesterday,

Megan does it. I'm going to be bloody. Are you serious? Are you serious? She tried to learn it yesterday and we were like, okay. So I've just,

I've learned the names. So she, do you shut your laptop? Okay, this is just a raw. Okay, she got, okay, you've got your eyes shut. Okay. I don't know if you're right or wrong.

We know until 27. Okay, okay, go. George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe. You're going really slow. You're going really slow. Andrew Jackson. Martin Van Buren, that's my favourite one. William Henry Harrison.

Grace is so sad. Grace is so sad. As you think I'm going to cry. Abraham Lincoln. Yeah, okay, good one, big bagger. Guys, I actually think I'm going to cry. This isn't funny. William McKinley.

Theodore Roosevelt. We got up to Roosevelt. Oh, someone Howard, Taft. William Howard Taft. Grace has spent six days on this. Megan spent less than a day, and you've already passed what Grace and Troy have now. Key Hardy. Yeah, she's such a dickhead.

Richard Nixon. I see Watergate, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, I can't. Oh, you're on the home straight, you're on the H, get this, take us home. George H. Bill Bush, Barack Donald, Joe Donald. Wow, all 47 presidents. In one day. In one day. Now, Grace, you spent a week on this.

Grace's arms folded, could look more Gen Z at the moment, side eyes going on. I'm not doing anything else for you guys. You haven't been doing anything for the last six days but we were spending probably like 20 minutes in a time learning and that's over like seven days Megan had a whole freaking day maybe I'll pull a sticky

Yeah I'm actually fucking Megan I said yesterday Troy I was like I swear to fucking God If Megan She told me the day before I was like if Megan does it Bloody pulls a sticky

And if she learns it I'm really fucking fuck And and I still feel like no 47 What listen you can still finish it No, I don't even want to finish it now. It's the our thing. Look, give me your thing.

Your Megan and Joy thing. Oh, why didn't you include me in it? Because producers need something sometime, okay? You guys get all the glory. Yeah. Oh, Grace. Well, hey, well... No, I bet you're so emot. I have to believe.

Don't leave, don't leave. Before you do, there may have been like an earpod. And Megan... You guys just said it! Larissa was in the other room. The officer of the office is telling you. I was actually going to cry. Oh, my.

The best. Oh, thank God. Just keep learning. Now you've only got half of them to go. I don't let you guys know when me and Troy sing the song, it's going to be a full performance. Okay, great. It's easy. Just put it in a earpiece in. John O'Benn and Megan.

The podcast. The Hats. Thank you for joining us. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. We emceived another event on Saturday night. Megan, I honestly believe there isn't an event in this country. We haven't emceeded yet, Ben Boys. Baby of the year, a human trafficker of the year.

We've done it all. Done it all. But it was a wonderful. a wonderful evening. What was this one that you're into? It's a house of the year. House of the year. If it's got of the year at the end of it, we'll be there. But what I do to appreciate too, and no matter what age you are from when you receive your

first award, you know, for toileting correctly at kindergarten, right through to when you're an adult, the joy of getting an award remains the same. Yeah. Everyone feels great getting an award, don't they? Yeah. Well, just your adults, you don't seem to get too many. Yeah. So it's great.

Who invented the award? They're a bloody genius. Make us feel better about ourselves But yeah, on the way to the event Got chatting to the Uber driver Is Perr, locked in the conversation capsule. Did you sit in the front? No, no, I didn't.

You got into my head about sitting in the front. You put me in the front when all three of us were in an Uber. Yeah. Yeah, we do. We're like, we can have some quiet time. As soon as the position, yeah. We literally let you go.

He was telling me... He was the need to fill the silence. Yeah. He was telling me that he's off on a trip. Wednesday. International trip. Now, how's this for a money-saving hack? He's blasting through like 12 countries,

and what he's done is he's catching connecting flights everywhere. So he'll catch a connecting flight to a country, and in doing so, they have a layover. Right. And then the airline puts you up in a hotel for one or two nights. He does a blistering tour of the country or city he's in, then hops on another connecting flight. So he gets free accommodation all of them.

around the world. Why are they putting them up, though? I don't know. This is this heck. It just feels like, why would the airline put you up? Unless they, like, they can't fly you. That seems like, I call BS on that one. How do you...

Why would he lie to that? How do you book a connecting flight? I didn't ask these questions. I was just like, wow. Where's the chat, mate? Where's the chat when they come out and go, why is the airline paying for you? Look, I understand if you can't, like, the airline's, I'm sorry, that flight's now cancelled or whatever, you know, we have to reschedule.

They may offer. Yeah. Because you can't, like, your connecting flight inevitably has an end. Yeah. So you can't. We have to say it's a travel hack, and I'm like, well, is it actually a travel hack? Well, he's even pretty happy with himself. So how do you go from New Zealand to, like, Italy, and then I want to connect a million times in between?

Plus, the airline pay for my accommodation wherever I go on the way. And then you have, like, 12 hours. Yeah. Yeah, a lot of the layovers aren't longer than 12 hours. Do you like to me about that? I don't know. I know. I mean, I'm not saying he's a lot, but I just like, I want to know more about that.

You don't believe him. You don't believe him. How long do you think he has before the connecting flight takes off? He said one or two days. Oh, rubbish. You're calling rubbish? I feel, I feel dirty. I feel lied to.

Maybe he's like, this guy's so annoying. I'm just going to make up a story. Maybe. And he all spouted it on the radio, watch this Monday morning. And just lucky enough to make it over there was Chiefs player, Leroy Carter, who, I had to get an emergency passport because, well, something happened to his with the dog. I got my passport out, take a photo to send to the manager, and I just left it on my bedside table.

And then, yeah, my partner went to the gym and left my dog home alone. And then it's gone down the hallway and jumped on the bed and then just chewed up passport and my teeth aligners. Yeah, the bloody invisible line as well. Nightmare. Nightmare. So, yeah, we played that on Friday. And so many great stories about missing passports.

but then after the overflow of that just animals eating stuff they've got a really interesting take on the food pyramid's animals don't they'll give most things a crack a lot of them right it's hard too because you love them so like there's so much admin when they eat something is your dog even last night actually like a dog woke up in the middle of the night just you know when you hear that that noise when they're going to be sick

and then I'm like who gave the dog steak and I was like well who got steak and then it was like no it was bark it was bark Oh, my dog eats barking. I was like, yeah, I was like, we didn't give him steak. And I was like, oh, so I was like, no wonder he's vomiting up. But they don't, they don't discriminate between a piece of steak and a piece of bag. No. Like, it's all fair game.

For him, me, it's like, I'll give this a crack. And it didn't work out well at like three in the morning last night. But anyway, wins and losses. What about your dog, Lee? Leo. Learoy. He's been, he loves bark as well. He loves paper towels.

He loves, why do they eat grass? That's when they're sick, isn't it? Upset summit, apparently, I don't know. And then they come in. and they find the patch of carpet you know like there'd be like lots of wood floor or something but they find the one patch of carpet to spill on. If we ate like dogs

we'd be locked, we'd be institutionalised wouldn't we? Yeah. Now Sue what did your cat eat mate? I got home to find a whole lot of like what I thought was cardboard on the floor because she loves biking cardboard and it was a $500 scratchy ticket that I had won.

No. Yeah, the barcode the numbers, every being just munted. Oh, so. Like, again, the cat, like, was it next to some bacon or, like, something on the bench? Like, why? She's just always loved eating boxes. Like, you put a box down, she jumps in it and starts eating it, and spitting out the cardboard pieces.

She's, yeah, weird. Now, I don't want to go dark, but did the cat use up one of its nine lives that day, Sue? Oh, she's used up a few of her lives. Yeah. Jesus. So no way you can get the money? No. Not without the...

If the barcode had been wrecked, that was okay. But if it had the numbers, they would have been able to do something. I mean, they could just take your word for it, too, as well, the Lottery's Commission. Oh, in that case. I've won first division, I said to have lost my ticket. Yeah, I could have said it was a $250,000. I've never heard anyone that winning that much on the Scratchies. Oh, that's impressive.

And you kind of didn't. I have a so she gave us call on Friday, but if you give us call right now, 0,800 the hits and tell us the most unusual or impressive thing that your animal had a cracket eating. I'd love to hear from you. Oh, 800 the hits.

We've got double past to Oprah Winfrey for every caller that gets on the airways today. God, maybe it was tickets to something. Imagine if you doggate your Oprah tickets. Or tickets to a gig, given how expensive they are these days. Well, then you'd be like, thank God I got the email or two. Yeah, well, Joe.

The podcast, the heads. Now, what the animals ate. Great rock-stallad radio topic this one is. It's done us well over the years, the old what the animals have eaten. Thank you to the animal community for providing such great content over the decades. One minute, the thing is with animals. You mentioned your dog eating steak one minute and then a huge chunk of bark for next. And they go from a $40 gourmet meal to cigarette butts to everything.

Nothing is off limits for them. So, Debbie, we've been hanging out for yours. your animal eat, Debbie? Well, this is back in the 80s when we still got things delivered by Pote. Right. So came home

and the front lawn is absolutely covered in tinfoil-tight paper. My sister and I have a good look around and we're trying to figure out what it was and we figured out it was Easter egg paper. Oh no. The front lawn.

The whole front lawn. Was it a dog? Yep. So what we did was we tried to pick it all up and we found a little remnant of a car. We had been sent a whole pack of Easter eggs from my auntie in Australia and

the dog had demolished the lot. Oh, not good for chocolate. No dogs can't have chocolate. Well, I think dogs back in those days, maybe they were made of tough stuff because the dog was fine. He was a lab and no vet needed. Really? That's like us with peanuts. We've got all precious about peanuts, haven't we?

Some countries, there's no allergies to peanuts because they have peanuts from day dogs. Well, I don't know, but this dog ate the whole lot, and we were pretty broken those days, so my sister and I were destroyed at the lack of chocolate. We're going to give you a double pass to Oprah. You think you've been sharing that with us. It feels unusual that dogs can't eat chocolate when they eat so many other stuff that you're like, well, why they're eating that?

Correct. Then chocolate is the bloody kryptonite? But labs have got an eye in guts, right? They'll eat anything, survive anything. The in-laws dog ate to the entire Christmas cake on Christmas. stomach and that's a heavy piece of food too. So, like, one of the ones that have alcohol on it? I don't know.

I can't remember. Is it kind of the fruity sort of cake? Yeah, yeah. And he was just like, you hit his stomach and he was just like a rock. And you're like lying on his back with his legs in here. Too much cake. Brendan, morning to you. Hey, morning, guys.

Lovely to have you on, Brendan. The animal ate what? So it was when I was growing up in South Africa, we had a pet, egg-eating snake. and we used to let it out for hunting like eggs every day. Hold on, so that's a sentence you done. A pet egg eating snake. So you had a snake, you'd let it out for hunting? Yeah, yeah, you had to let it out every day.

And you'd hide an egg, like a raw chicken egg. Oh, for it to find. Okay, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then the one day I was rushing off to school, and I couldn't find my assignment that I had done for the night before. And we found it later mixed up in the egg shell that the egg kind of poops out at the end.

Oh, so the snake had eaten your assignments. Snake ate my homework. Yeah, so was it, yeah, and this was trying to hard to actually give that excuse, but it was a real excuse. You're pretty, like, casual about this whole situation. This is very unusual that you had a snake that you'd let out of its cage. But, hey, I guess that was just growing up for you. Yeah, they're harmless.

They're harmless, because snakes, yeah. Can you, like, really play a prank on someone and hide the egg in their, like, handbag or something? That's, uh, yeah, you must come to New Zealand and you're like, you guys are really soft over here with your animals. Or not, or not, maybe not, maybe the snake ate the end of that, come by our phone call. We're going to give you a double pass to Oprah. John O'Benn and Megan. The podcast.

The hits. You've been souping up your vehicle, Megan. Yeah, you've seen my car. Is it a mini? No, it's a, Sanong. It's a bit of a, um, man of car. Looks like a mini. Oh, thanks.

Yeah. Looks like a mini sort of cooper. Identify as a minnie. It identifies it. It's a saying young that identifies as a minute. It's just like a little, like, I don't know, Nana car. Something too fancy. But yes, I am into Formula One, which is quite the opposite to my car.

Yeah, I don't know. I should have said something. You should have brought that up, for that or twice. I'm making it my whole personality. You are. But my best friend is also into it, and she has helped me put a little feature on my little Nana car to make me feel pretty cool when I get into it. Okay.

Okay, and here it is. When I plug in my phone and it goes through to like car play, which I realise everyone can't, it doesn't have, there's a little feature. You can make it play something. So this plays every time I turn on my car. It's lights out and away we go. Which is the start of a race.

Every Formula One race, they always say. So that's when you start your car. Does it make you want to be honest? is to make you want to drive faster. Yeah. Yeah. But my car only does, you know. But it would put time pressure on, can you be your lap time to work every morning?

It really does. And then you put your GPS in and it says like 501 and you're like, I'll show you 501. Yeah. And it really takes the wind out of that sales wind. It's like, well, I'm just driving to pack and save. It's lights out and away we go. Give you a fright, though, wouldn't it? Yeah, sometimes I get into the car and I forget about it.

And then all of a sudden it'll go, it's lights out and away. It's like terrifying. but feel pretty cool. How many speeding tickets until you consider yourself a professional race car driver? How many demerits? Yeah, I don't know.

It would put a lot of pressure on you though, wouldn't it? Yeah. To just go fast. Yeah, it does. Good feature. But after I watch a race as well, like I want to like, oh no. You should take up like go-kart riding or something, you know?

No, because I think I'd actually probably hurt myself. I think I'd roll the car. You are quite competitive, aren't you? Let's take you to the go-cat tree. That's a great idea. Yeah, take me going along there. Wouldn't it be amazing if we beat me get on the go-kart trip?

I won't. I have no interest in go-kart riding at all. He's a lot of enthusiasm. He even called a go-kart rider. Any work trip, the go-kart rider, I'm like, huh, not for me. We did it for a Christmas party. Because you want to get so competitive and it's just such a...

Do that every day Not that impressive mate Some days I don't To be honest But most days I do Yeah John O' Ben and Megan The podcast

The Hats Well, every couple of years in our household, it's kind of like the NBA draft, really. The kids, they can get into a conversation of, you know, who they would prefer as parents. Okay. Apart from, you know, us. Okay. They're biological parents. Right.

And they do chuck out options. Back in the day, I think it was like Charlie Demelio, Poppy. Yeah. An Iron Man, like some of the Avengers and things like that. And that's right. They settled on Charlie Demelio and Iron Man, which was. probably a 40-year age gap between Robert Downey Jr. and

Charlie D'emelio. Anything's possible? A bit strange. A bit strange. People would frown, the society would frown upon that marriage. And then, so, the conversation dipped around again. It's moved on now. There's a couple of options for the fathers,

LeBron James, Stephen Adams, good strong basketballers, taller. It would probably be far better. You know, all I do with basketball is just rebound a ball. They could actually play with. with Oscar and then probably was wanting Sabrina a Sabrina Carpenter as well again Sabrina what's she early 20s

It's a humbling experience, knowing that there's better people out there than you at your job. Who would you replace yourself with? In what form? In parenting. Oh, geez. I mean, I haven't actually thought about that, but, yeah, I mean, I always think about that when people have the best dad mug or something. You're not. Just be honest.

Chris Hemsy was the dad. He's a better dad. Can I replace my husband? So that I'm there to enjoy it. Oh, I see what you say. You're replacing the dad of the kids. Yeah, I want to replace anyone better. like better than me
